Hey guys, just letting you know there's a new shop with Alden here in Prague, Czech Republic. They also have a good collection of Vass from Budapest and English brands like Alfred Sargent and Loake. The shop's pretty nice too, it's great there is finally a place to buy this shoes here. Check their facebook page here. Their website is www.classicshoes.eu , but it is under construction now.
(I hope it is not against the rules to post such a thing here.)

What do you think about this Barbour? I like it and the cut is much slimmer than their usual ones, but still not slim. Seems to me like a nice crossover between country and urban wear. (And I generally hate this crossovers.)

Hi guys, no intention to start another "photo only" thread like this , mostly a BS theoretical discussion... I just returned from Paris and every time I'm there I'm in awe of how the guys there look. They are almost never "perfectly" dressed as the Italians for example, but they often have a very special and individual style which makes them look interesting. You often see a guy in very regular clothes, where every part taken separately is nothing special, but put together...

For a new pair:
1. Clean / brush
2. Waterproof (couple of layers)
Do you use conditioners (Saphir renovateur?)
Want to keep these babies for as long as possible
waterproofing them is enough.. if you have any light colour, they'll be dirty quickly anyway.. but actually look better for it

How's the quality of these? Is it the same as MIE "vintage line" DMs?

Do you know about any sales or any good 2nd hand pieces of this Belstaff? It's really amazing, however, the price's a bit too much for me. (Any tips on good knock-offs would also be appreciated.)
This does not look bad, however, I'm doubtful about the quality.
